Kontron

Introduction

Kontron develops and markets miniaturized computer boards. The software integrated in these so-called digital brains adds intelligence to a wide variety of devices and systems.

History

The company was established in 1991 and looks back on a history of impressive growth. In 1993 they developed their first fully integrated embedded computer product, and they have been Germany's leading supplier of embedded computer technology since 1995. Their move into the foreign markets was funded by a financial investor. In 1997 they also became the No 1 in Europe. Today they're the world market leader. Their technologies have repeatedly set new standards; their PISA concept, the ETX and the DIMM PC format are globally recognized ECT (Embedded Computer Technology) standards today.

JUMPtec's operational business was transferred to the new founded Kontron Embedded Modules GmbH after the merger between JUMPtec AG and Kontron.
